Chapter 9
I struggled in his arms like a hellion, determined to get free and stop the feelings he was awakening. They would do me no good. The past was in the past and I couldn’t afford any distraction. Trying to establish distance was like trying to break iron columns with your bare hands. Impossible. Then there was all the friction between our bodies caused by my struggles. It was distracting and discerning all at once. My disciplined body betrayed me.
So I bit his arm, and the jerk didn’t even flinch.
Next thing I knew I was being swept through the forest and stuffed into the back seat of Chase’s car. This was going horribly wrong. Fidgeting in the seat, I tried to devise a plan to get me the hell out of this mess. The last thing I wanted was to be trapped inside the lion’s den. When we finally stopped outside the Winters’ house, I went for blood.
Travis’s blood.
As he carefully pulled me from the car, I swung out at this pretty-boy face. Of course his reflexes actually prevented me from connecting with his cheek, but I had a second line of defense ready. I kicked him in the shin.
His aqua eyes narrowed, followed by a scowl. “Behave,” he said, and I watched his eyes rim with gold.
My heart tripped.
“Bite me,” I snapped. Maybe not the right word choice, but hey, I was off my game.
The corner of his mouth tilted, eyes flashing yellow. “Just say where and when.”
I swallowed.
He chuckled, watching me intently. The whole car ride, he had watched me like a hawk, well a sexy hawk. It was as if he was afraid that if he wasn’t looking at me, I would pull another disappearing act on him. Under those long, long lashes, I felt his gaze everywhere. To make matters extremely uncomfortable for both of us, he kept me on his lap, and I was pretty positive I got more than I bargained for.
“It would help if you stopped wiggling,” he had whispered in my ear.
My cheeks flamed, and I went still as a portrait.
Now that I was being transported into the house, my anxiety went through the roof. I didn’t believe for a second that Travis would hurt me, but the facility…well, that was a whole different ball game. If they knew that I had been captured by Divisa, I could kiss my sorry ass goodbye. The facility does not like messes or fuck-ups.
It also didn’t help my blood pressure that Travis actually had the gall to tie me up, not that I made it easy for him. I wanted to sink my teeth into him again, but I was afraid this time it might be for the wrong reasons. I didn’t trust my lips anywhere near him a second time.
Sitting there with my hands bound, I couldn’t believe how much I had screwed up, but in my defense, Travis had the kind of face that made you forget the rules. I listened to Chase and Angel bicker outside.
